The new Sound Pressure Horn for bolder bass
Be blown away by soul-shaking bass with the new Sound Pressure Horn. A folded horn design efficiently builds sound pressure by pushing energy along small ducts, without losing power through heat like traditional signal processing. This high-pressure energy leaves the speaker at a higher volume, especially in the low-end frequencies, adding boldness and body to all your bass lines.
Three-way 2.1ch speaker system for powerful sound
Get full-range, powerful sound from a three-way 2.1ch speaker system. A punchy 35cm (13.7”) subwoofer is large enough to handle heavy bass, while the sound bar features four 8cm (3.1”) drivers and two 4cm (1.5”) tweeters, delivering soaring highs and robust mids.
DSEE restores detail to digital music
Boost the quality of your compressed music files. When an original music source is compressed, it loses the high frequency elements that add detail and richness to your favourite tracks. The Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) faithfully restores these to produce high quality sound that’s closer to the original CD recording.
MEGA BASS adds power to your bass lines
Push the MEGA BASS button to add some serious low-end power to your music. It works by reinforcing bass lines to create a more powerful sound. Simply press the button to activate the mode, and be blown away by resounding bass.
Set up for a wide listening area
Fill your party with soul-shaking sound thanks to a wide listening area. The sound bar attaches to the top of the subwoofer or to a tripod at a 10-degree angle, dispersing sound evenly over a wide area. The result is room-filling audio that really gets the party going.
LED speaker lights create a party atmosphere
Pump up the atmosphere with club-like LED speaker illumination. The LED speaker light synchronises with the rhythm of the beat, while the power and speed of the light display matches the musical mood and atmosphere.
Party app
Take control of the party from the dance floor with the party app. Simply download onto your smartphone and enjoy wireless control of all your party settings. Switch up the colour of the LED speaker lights, or experiment with DJ effects, without being tied to the booth.
Party Chain lets you expand your speaker system
Add extra power to your sound system. Connect multiple systems in a chain to produce a higher sound output. Activate one device to be the ‘Party Host’ and sync music and light effects with the other systems in the chain.
DJ effects let you put your own spin on tracks
Get the crowd going with DJ effects. Four different effects set the stage for your party: Flanger creates a deep roaring effect; WAH distorts the audio; Isolator singles out a specific frequency band; and PAN sweeps the sound across speakers. Getting creative with your party playlists has never been easier.
Karaoke features let you sing along
Hosting karaoke competitions with your friends is easy: just hook the MHC-GT5D up to a TV, pop in a karaoke DVD, and sing along to the words on the screen. Two mic inputs and features such as song reservation, scoring, and echo let you team up with friends for the ultimate sing-off. A built-in Karaoke PON even turns down the vocal on CDs, so you can sing all your favourite songs.
Connect to a TV with an optical port
Make the sound bar part of your Home Cinema system by hooking it up to your LCD TV. Digitally connect with an optical cable and enjoy cinematic sound for your favourite movies, TV, and music.
Cinematic S-Force Front Surround Sound
An immersive virtual surround sound experience. S-Force Front Surround mimics the way the brain correlates sound sources to create proper volume, time lag, and sound wave spectrum – using only left and right speaker channels. By naturally emulating three-dimensional sound fields, you’ll be able to enjoy rich, high-fidelity audio across a wider listening area.
Football mode puts you pitch side
The beautiful game has never sounded so good. Using acoustic data captured in a Brazilian football stadium, this dedicated mode enhances the natural, ambient noise at sporting events so you’ll feel like you’re part of the crowd. Don’t like the commentary? A specially designed algorithm closely monitors the audio and allows you to filter it out completely.
Clear Dialogue for sharp, vocal clarity
Get sharp, clear dialogue for your movies and TV shows – even when the volume is low. Clear Dialogue works by reducing background noise and boosting the frequencies in the vocal range to account for inconsistencies in the sound mix. The result is clearer speech at low volumes and in content such as home videos.
Enjoy all your movies with a built-in DVD player
Break out your favourite DVDs and watch them on the MHC-GT5D’s built-in player. Enjoy every explosion, action sequence and dramatic scene in cinematic surround sound that puts you in the heart of the action. Turn your living room into a theatre and host epic movie nights.
